The Numerical Range of the Luoshu Is a Piece of Cake--Almost
Trenkler, Gotz; Trenkler, Dietrich
College Mathematics Journal, v43 n5 p371-376 Nov 2012
The numerical range, easy to understand but often tedious to compute, provides useful information about a matrix. Here we describe the numerical range of a 3 x 3 magic square. Applying our results to one of the most famous of those squares, the Luoshu, it turns out that its numerical range is a piece of cake--almost.
